Rules Q&A
Spawning Pool
Land
Spawning Pool enters the battlefield tapped.
Tap: Add (Black) to your mana pool.
(1)(Black): Spawning Pool becomes a 1/1 black Skeleton creature with "(Black): Regenerate this creature" until end of turn. It's still a land. (If it regenerates, the next time it would be destroyed this turn, it isn't. Instead tap it, remove all damage from it, and remove it from combat.)

I have a Machine God's Effigy enter the battlefield as a copy of an animated Spawning Pool, then I activate the Effigy's ability to become a creature.
Does “It's still a land” just mean “It's still the permanent types that it was at the activation of this ability”? I.E. does this translate to the Effigy becoming an artifact creature until end of turn?

Anyone who has played TES: Morrowind (the best entry of the series) knows that you can be on the final stretch of the game with Keening and Sunder and the Wraithguard and have the very rare and full suit of Daedric Armor with Heavy Armor skill of 100
And still die to a seemingly endless Spawning Pool of these Lvl 1 monstrous badasses.
F--- Cliff Racers. Vile atrocities.

Zakath on This deck is a deck 1

A couple others maybe:
Hagra Mauling
Flip in place of a swamp.
Spawning Pool in place of a swamp. The tapped land part sucks but nice to have a disposable blocker in a pinch.
Tangled Florahedron
Flip - maybe? Not really sure about this one.
Oran-Rief, the Vastwood in place of a forest.
Mosswort Bridge in place of a swamp. Wouldn't it be cool if you had a In Garruk's Wake or a Verdant Force under it?
Field of Ruin in place of another swamp.
Crawling Barrens in place of another swamp. This is a surprisingly good land. It can come out of nowhere in a pinch.
Labyrinth of Skophos in place of a forest or swamp. Nice to be able to remove an infect creature or big guy coming at you.
Conqueror's Galleon
Flip in place of Talisman of Resilience. The flip on the Galleon is really easy (especially with the Labyrin and can be a good source of value or recursion.

Mycosynth Lattice is more or less an optional wincon, if it's there, awesome if not I have Karn for fetching answers more than for the finish. As for Blinkmoth Nexus , I've debated it a bit (though honestly more with it and Mutavault ) and never thought of Spawning Pool I do really like that card and might switch it around but do like being able to pump it if I have more and that it trades with flying dorks. In regards to Liliana....just budgety reasons honestly, I had the majority of the cards for the deck already either laying around or in decks that haven't been played in years. Eventually she's definitely a possibility but I like trying to do things a little different and not copy decks card for card with negligible differences.

Do you think you will get to 6 mana for Mycosynth Lattice ? with Smallpox it seems like it would be hard to get mana. maybe you could play an artifact that ramps you in the sideboard...that may be too cute though. Also Id recommend a Sideboard Witchbane Orb or Sun Droplet . I also saw that you were playing Blinkmoth Nexus . That is a cool idea as it gets under bridge and can fly over your opponents team, but I'd also like to suggest Spawning Pool . It can be a mini Ensnaring Bridge since you can chump and regenerate it every turn. no one seems to like it, but I am a huge proponent of that card. Finally I'd like to know your opinion on Liliana of the Veil , you don't run any, but it may be one of the strongest cards in 8 rack. Just wondering what made you leave it out. Anyways cool deck +1

What is infernal tutor for? Not really sure. If the only reason you dont like mutavault is because of how it pairs with bridge, try out a few Spawning Pool .
Snowmen1 on 8 rack help
5 years ago
Unorthodox but consider using Spawning Pool , I like it more than Mutavault in some situations even though the 1 power can be crippling. has multiple upsides though: Produces Black mana on its own, you can hide behind it by just block and regenerating in combat if it comes down to that last creature, and it easily can get beneath your own Ensnaring Bridge . coming in tapped really isn't that big of a problem in my opinion when compared with mutavault for land slots. Hope this helps.

Augur of Skulls , Duty-Bound Dead , Manor Skeleton , Reassembling Skeleton , Sanitarium Skeleton , Tenacious Dead Death Baron , Skeletal Changeling , Spawning Pool are all ok.
I'd look at doubling down on the board wipes, especially if you can delay them, and looking more to artifacts like Lashwrithe . Mono black deckbuilder's toolbox is my list of all the stuff I've made work in mono-black in modern.
